Kokhanovsky A. (Ed.) Light Scattering Reviews 10. Light Scattering and Radiative Transfer

Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2016. — 355 p. — ISBN: 3662467615.The work is aimed at the review of hot topics in modern light scattering and radiative transfer. A special attention will be given to the description of the methods of integro-differential radiative transfer equation solution. In particular, the asymptotic radiative transfer and the method of discrete ordinates will be considered. A comprehensive review of light absorption in the terrestrial atmosphere will be given as well. The inverse problem solution will be reviewed as well.Polarimetry
